Hi everyone,

I had a question about sanitizing the jars/bottles, for lotion. How do you do it (or suggest that I do it) and what do you use? I'm looking at expanding my line and am doing my research.

Thanks :)
 
You can't sanitize at home unless you're using glass. Trust me on this, every thread I've read on moldy lotion, and from my own personal experience, reusing plastic will give you the yukkies. I've done batches of lotion in new containers with a tester for me in a used, thoroughly bleached to death, plastic container, and the used one got moldy. Not worth the effort.

For my own use I use glass. Easy to sanitize, reusable. HTHs
